Detailed Solution

Depression in Freezing point ΔTf=W1×Kf×1000M1×W2 where W1= Weight of Solute
W2= Weight of solvent
M1= Molar mass of solute
Kf= Freezing point deprssion constant
Now, ΔTf=1.86×68.5×1000342×1000=0.372C
Now, ΔTf=T°-Tf
So, Tf=0-0.372=-0.372C.
(Freezing point of pure water = 0°C.)

Hence the correct answer is -0.3720C.
